Xia Lin, Chu Ci and the others were cautious with every step.

The number of them is too small, and the women have Charlene and Bai Qiang.

To make matters worse, on the tenth day, they ran out of water!

The nutrient solution brought by everyone was quite sufficient, although it was a little unpalatable, but except for Charlene, no one said anything, after all, everyone had long been used to this kind of thing.

As for Charlene, thanks to Yu Yang's blessing, the dried meat accumulated in her space is enough for her to eat for the next life.

Even with this, Charlene decided to send Yu Yang, who didn't know if it was because she felt guilty about her in her heart and didn't know how to express it, so she could only blindly compensate her in her own way to send a stack of good person cards.

If it weren't for Yu Yang, she would only be stupid now?

Whether it is the crops and food in the space that belong to thousands of years ago or the pile of Xunyu that belongs to Qingshan City, it is obviously not suitable to take out the small stove.

If she dared to bring out even a fish ball in this place, maybe it would attract an unknown powerful beast to feed her, not to mention how she could explain it after taking it out?

She can still steal a few pieces of jerky and occasionally drink some water when others are not paying attention, and she is already very happy.

But whether it's Charlene or anyone else, nutrients can't replace water, and jerky can't.

It's not good news that the water is cut off in this place.

In particular, although the natural ecology of the underground world is still relatively intact, the underground water is absolutely inedible under the premise.

Guarding a jar of water in a water tank, but trying to kill yourself with thirst or something......

It couldn't have been more abusive.

In fact, since they had already estimated the danger of this place and the size of the area before deciding to come down, it was naturally impossible for them not to be fully prepared.

It can even be said that except for Charlene, who knows nothing about the underground world, the rest of the people have prepared everything that they can use as much as possible.

After all, although everyone's storage space is limited, with the emergence of space capsules, it will be much easier to carry many things.

It's just that they encountered a "prehistoric" mutant plant before, a large area of man-eating flowers.

And this man-eating flower seems to have been living underground for thousands of years, and has produced a completely different mutation from the piranha flower on the surface, even Charlene has a very difficult time communicating with these man-eating flowers.

In fact, several of them encountered their first bitter battle after going underground.

And in the process, they not only lost many important biological samples, but also lost three full storage capsules of water.

After all, the storage capsule is also a space opened up by using foreign objects as support, which itself has a certain degree of instability.

In addition, it can't be integrated with the storage space that everyone uses mental power to support, and there is no space ability cheater like Charlene, so there is no way to put the storage capsule into the storage space supported by everyone's private mental power. So they can only carry the storage capsules with them.

There are also biological samples that can't be packed into space at all, and they can only be carried around.

Therefore, when encountering that large area of ferocious cannibal flowers, even though everyone has been very careful to protect their belongings, they still suffer a lot of losses.

Although those biological samples, especially those samples of organisms that had not been discovered by the Federation in the underground world before, Xia Lin had a copy that Chu Ci and Xia Lin had quietly hidden, but the loss on the surface still made people feel uncomfortable.

Of course, the most uncomfortable thing is that they are only in this city that has become a kingdom of underground aliens and some dark creatures, and they have only walked less than a tenth of the distance.

Without the support of water resources, the rest of the road will be more difficult.

They have to find a water source that they can eat, or something that can replace it, before they run out of water.

And, of course, there's the question that precedes all the options – are they going to go any further?

Chu Ci's expression was a little strange, he didn't choose to go back or move on, but stayed after finding a temporary place to stay.

Looking at Chu Ci's back, a faint confusion crossed Xia Lin's eyes.

This man, he ...... What's wrong?

Of course, she knew that whether it was going forward or backward, it was an equally difficult and uncertain and dangerous choice, and she also knew that going back would inevitably seem a little uncomfortable for everyone. But......

Is there anything more important than life?

In Charlene's opinion, this is almost a matter that does not need to be considered.

But looking at the worried and determined expressions on the faces of the others, Charlene would never be able to say such words.

Charlene always felt that there seemed to be something that everyone knew about and that she was the only one who kept her in the dark.

Originally, Charlene didn't care, after all, just like the Xia family in her eyes at the beginning, these people were just unimportant passers-by to her, or she was to these people.

But in fact, it wasn't until this moment that Charlene realized that she was actually upset because she was worried about Chu Ci.

Xia Lin had a very strong premonition in her heart, and Chu Ci was afraid that she would not choose to go back.

This dungeon must have something very important to him, and he must obtain it.

Moreover, it must be before the Federation takes over the exploration and development here.

Charlene's space naturally stores a lot of water, no way, who made her always greedy for life and afraid of death?

Well, the most important thing is to thank the Yu family, because the pile of water in her space that she almost forgot about was piled up in the time when she was at home, holding the principle that it is a shameful act not to save in vain and not to waste things at home.

But how to take it out is a problem.

Do normal people store a lot of water in their own space when they are fine? And don't plan to swim in your own storage space.

Even if he wanted to, he didn't have enough storage space. Even if all the water is stored, it is a small puddle.

And if Charlene only takes out a small amount of water, it won't last long. If you take out enough water for everyone......

That's the same nature as taking it all out.

However, does she want to guard the water that is piled up in the space, but let the people around her**?

Charlene thought she wasn't so cruel as she was. And, well, most importantly, she didn't feel like she'd made herself as sloppy again as she was in the last days because of this.

So, when everyone gathered around to drink the nutrient solution at night, Xia Lin finally couldn't help but silently touch Chu Ci's side.

Seeing Xia Lin sitting next to Chu Ci, there was naturally more than one person, but everyone tacitly seemed to be collectively blind, and no one looked over.

Although after getting along for the past few days, they also knew that the reason why Chu Ci had to bring the reluctant Charlene down was not only because she was afraid that she would escape, but also because her special wood-based ability could play a lot of unexpected roles here.

But this obviously still can't change at all, and she has been labeled as Chu Ci's exclusive label in everyone's hearts.

Or should it be said that except for Chu Ci and Xia Lin, the two parties who didn't feel it, everyone's thoughts were surprisingly unanimous. →_→

Everyone knows the predicament they are facing at the moment, but can they change the boss's decision, and how much can they shake......

Anyway, their group of big men and Bai Qiang, a woman who is stronger than men in some aspects, can't change much.

Who made the boss of their family not to understand the customs, then they couldn't see the customs at all~

However, maybe Charlene will have a different effect if she goes?

Everyone looked at each other, frowning and winking, as if they were waiting to see the results.

Seeing the expressions of several people in his eyes, Bai Qiang, who was originally busy testing the sampling results in his hands, raised his eyebrows and seemed to smile.

Does Charlene have an influence on the boss?

She's actually quite interested in knowing.

Chu Ci looked up at Charlene who walked over. "What's wrong?"

"The ......," Charlene hesitated, "do you remember the metal house?" ”

Chu Ci raised his eyebrows slightly, and his face, which was originally a little pensive, was now smiling rather than smiling. "What, you're going to take me in??"

He thought that place should be the hidden existence that Charlene mentioned the most? Or is it that the little woman in front of her, who looked cold to herself a few days ago, suddenly became so close to her relationship that she could even share such a secret.

How did he not know where this conversion came from?

"Don't even think about it!" Charlene instantly lost her previous hesitation and hesitation, gritted her teeth, and glared at Chu Ci.

This bastard, she knew he was still thinking about his space!

Charlene's voice was a little loud, and it was even louder and clearer in this rather quiet dungeon, making it difficult for everyone not to pretend not to care.

After all, if you still pretend to know nothing about such movements, then it's too fake, right? o(╯□╰)o

Seeing everyone's eyes, Chu Ci was very calm, but Xia Lin was a little embarrassed, and she couldn't wait to bury her head immediately.

"Bastard, I'll get down to business!"

Hearing Xia Lin's words of lowering her voice and gritting her teeth, Chu Ci smiled. "Well, let's talk, what's wrong?"

"I'm ......," Charlene bit her lip, "I'm full of water there." ”

Charlene's speech was very fast, and her voice was very soft, and Chu Ci was stunned. "What?"

"I said I was full of water there!" Charlene grinds her teeth.

"Really?" Chu Ci heard it clearly this time, but he looked at Xia Lin with an incredible look, "When did you save it?" ”

If he remembered correctly, Charlene was brought directly from his residence, not to mention storing water, and even food and nutrients were uniformly equipped before coming.

Of course, this girl's own storage of things in the zài storage space does not count.

However, under the premise that there is no shortage of water in the Federation, no matter where she is, why is she doing with so much water in her own space? You can't eat anything you don't usually need.

Even people who venture into the depths of the jungle don't necessarily bring much water?! R1152
